In order to promote shared practices in the representation of abbreviations and glyphs across projects, document suggested forms for common abbreviations as well as selected special cases (special signs, notarial signs, monograms).

  • Check usage of cei:c across various projects to see how it has been used in the past
    (only 17 distinct uses of cei:c (uo, ui, Ov, e˛, ie, ae, oe, Oe, ue, Vo, Lvedel, we, e¸, ve, vo, ov, vo,)
  • Provide code examples for:
    • the most common abbreviations (table from Clemens & Graham? Beginning ofeach subsection in Capelli's introduction?)
    • example of printed representation of signatures marks in manuscript
    • monogram
    • special notarial sign
  • discuss when it may be more appropriate to represent as a figure

One approach to representation (using <c>, rather than <g>) is:
